alive, 3 died due to the cancer progression of the tumors

except ones received the C-ion RT, 5 developed a local

recurrence. The 1-year OS of the CRC group and the non-

CRC group, the larger tumor group (> 50mm) and the

smaller tumor group, the 4-fraction group and the 12-

fraction group were 100% and 75% (p value=0.16), 81 % and

100% (p=0.078), 94% and 80% (p=0.030), respectively. The

1-year LCR of those were 70% and 100% (p=0.13), 56% and

100% (p=0.080), 80 % and 75% (p=0.95), respectively. No

Grade 3 and worse adverse reactions were observed. No

patients experienced radiation-induced liver disease.

Conclusion

It is suggested the C-ion RT for MLT is an effective and safe

treatment even in large MLT. This is the initial result thus

it is necessary to analyze more number of patients and for

longer observation period.

Purpose or Objective

The purpose of this study was to determine whether

pretreatment whole-body metabolic tumor volume

(MTV

WB

) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG

WB

) are associated

with outcomes in patients with thoracic esophageal

squamous cell carcinoma treated by definitive

chemoradiotherapy (dCRT).

Material and Methods

We retrospectively reviewed patients with stage II or III

thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who

underwent FDG-PET/CT within 60 days before dCRT at our

institution between January 2005 and August 2013.

Patients who had massive pneumonia caused by

perforation of the tumor at FDG-PET/CT were excluded.

Ninety patients were enrolled in this study. We calculated

all lesion’s SUV

max

, SUV

mean

, MTV and TLG by using MIM

maestro

TM

ver. 6.6.1 (MIM Software Inc. USA). TLG was

calculated from MTV × SUV

mean

. TLG

WB

was sum of TLG of

primary lesion (TLG

pri

) and lymph-node lesions. MTV

WB

was

sum of MTV of primary lesion (MTV

pri

) and lymph-node

lesions. Survival estimates were calculated using the

Kaplan-Meier method from the first date of dCRT.

Predictors were analyzed using Cox’s hazards model.

Results

The median follow-up period was 64.2 months for

survivors. Three-year overall survival (OS), local control

(LC) and progression free survival (PFS) were 52.0 %, 42.7

% and 35.2 %, respectively. In univariate analysis, T stage

(p = 0.019, hazard ratio [HR]: 1.73), MTV

0.025, HR: 1.95), TLG

MTV

WB

≥ median (p = 0.004, HR: 2.38) and TLG

WB

≥ median

(p = 0.007, HR = 2.25) were significant unfavorable

predictors of OS. TLG

predictors of LC. T stage (p = 0.007, HR: 1.65), 1 cycle of

concurrent chemotherapy (p = 0.021, HR: 2.14), SUV

≥ median (p = 0.006,

HR: 2.06) and TLG

WB

significant unfavorable predictors of PFS. Factors with p <

0.1 in univariate analysis were included in multivariate

analysis. In multivariate analysis, MTV

WB

≥ median (p =

0.016, HR: 2.34) and TLG

WB

≥ median (p = 0.013, HR = 2.34)

were significant unfavorable predictors of OS. TLG

pri

median (p = 0.023, HR: 2.17), MTV

WB

≥ median (p = 0.020,

HR: 2.18) and TLG

WB

≥ median (p = 0.007, HR = 2.50) were

significant unfavorable predictors of LC. MTV

pri

≥ median

(p = 0.0495, HR: 1.83), TLG

pri

≥ median (p = 0.024, HR:

2.01), MTV

WB

≥ median (p = 0.003, HR: 2.44) and TLG

WB

median (p = 0.008, HR = 2.79) were significant unfavorable

predictors of PFS. SUV

max

was not selected as a predictor

of OS, LC or PFS.

Conclusion

In multivariate analysis, MTV

WB

and TLG

WB

were

independent predictors for OS, LC and PFS. In addition,

the hazard ratio of TLG

WB

was highest for OS, LC and PFS

in multivariate analysis. TLG

WB

is one of best predictor in

patients with stage II or III thoracic esophageal squamous

cell carcinoma treated by dCRT.

Purpose or Objective

We investigated the role of adjuvant radiotherapy

combined with chemotherapy (CRT) in patients with

microscopically positive resection margin after curative

resection for extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (EHCC).

Material and Methods

We included 87 patients with EHCC treated with curative

surgery at our institution. Of the 35 patients with

microscopically positive resection margin, 22 patients

received adjuvant chemoradiotherapy (R1 + CRT group)

and 13 received adjuvant radiotherapy alone (R1 + XRT

group). We compared treatment outcomes between these

patients and 52 patients with negative resection margin

who did not receive any adjuvant treatments (S group).

Results

Patients in R1 + CRT and R1 + XRT group were younger than

those in S group and pathologically positive lymph node

was more common in R1 + CRT group. During the median

follow-up period of 26 months, the 2-year disease-free

survival rates were 55.8% for S group, 54.5% for R1 + CRT

group and 9.6% for R1 + XRT group. There was no

significant difference in disease-free survival rate

between S group and R1 + CRT group (

p

= 0.225). In

contrast, R1 + XRT group had significantly inferior 2-year

disease-free survival rate compared with S group (

p

=

0.013) and R1 + CRT group (

p

= 0.008). In multivariate

analysis, R1 + XRT group had a trend for increased risk of

recurrence (HR, 2.049; 95% CI, 0.930–4.514;

p

= 0.075).

The 2-year overall survival rates were 61.5% for S group,

54.5% for R1 + CRT group and 15.4% for R1 + XRT group.

There was significant difference in 2-year overall survival

rate between R1 + XRT group versus S group (

p

<0.001) and

R1 + CRT group (

p

= 0.021). Multivariate analysis revealed

that R1 + XRT group had an increased risk of mortality (HR,

2.497; 95% CI, 1.242–5.019;

p

= 0.010).

Conclusion

Adjuvant CRT after R1 resection showed equivalent

survival rates to R0 resection without adjuvant

treatments, whereas adjuvant radiotherapy alone after R1

resection had significantly worse survival outcomes

compared with other groups. As adjuvant CRT had superior

outcomes to adjuvant radiotherapy alone in patients with

R1 resection, adjuvant CRT might be a better option for

controlling microscopic residual EHCC.
